Situation
Eilean a’ Chapuill ‘The Island of the Horse’ is an Island with boat house located in a situation of great natural scenic beauty just off the Knapdale peninsula which is between Loch Sween to the west and Loch Caolisport to the east.
The Island is set just off Kilmory beach and there are wonderful 360 degree aspects across the water to the mainland and Islands of Jura and Islay.
The island is accessible by foot at low tide and also by boat.
Crinan, Cairnbaan and Tayvallich are small and charming west coast villages and hamlets which are accessible to and from Eilean a’ Chapuill.
Crinan, with its little harbour, canal basin and anchorage, forms the western sea end of the Crinan Canal and in the summer months the canal is always a colourful spectacle with passing yachting, cruising and pleasure craft as they navigate the canal waterway to connect the inland sea lochs, the Clyde estuary and the Kyles of Bute with the more testing and scenically spectacular sailing waters of the western Isles.
Tayvallich is a picturesque fishing village situated on the shores of Loch Sween. It is a popular and sheltered yachting haven with its spectacular scenery and vibrant community which includes a restaurant, general store and shop along with many local artists.
The area is well known for its dramatic and natural scenic beauty, and this has always drawn people to the area making it a popular tourist destination.
Eilean a’ Chapuill extends to circa 5.4 acres.
